“Didn’t Handle It The Right Way”: Kim Caldwell Opens Up About Hitting Rock Bottom, Seeks Tennessee Reset

Speed, pressure defense, and team connection defined Kim Caldwell’s teams. At Tennessee, that blueprint became harder to recognize as the 2025–26 season unraveled. Now, her explanation for the collapse begins with the decisions she made and the coaching identity she allowed to slip away. Caldwell discussed that reckoning in a Nov. 12 ESPN feature by Andrea Adelson. The interview followed a 16–14 season that ended with Tennessee’s first-round NCAA Tournament exit. “It is a big job, and there is a steep learning curve, and the world has seen me fail in a very public spotlight,” said Caldwell. “I...

Updated ESPN FPI prediction for Texas A&M vs. No. 8 Tennessee

Texas A&M enters Week 11 at 4-5 and 1-5 in SEC play, set to host No. 8 Tennessee for the first time in a decade, as the Aggies are hoping that improved play on offense in consecutive close losses to Alabama and South Carolina translates to a win against one of the best defenses in the SEC. While the Aggies' 2026 season has been a failure, coach Mike Elko knew going into his third season that the new nine-game SEC schedule would result in at least three, or possibly four, losses unless the bottom completely fell out, which has happened, and could get worse, knowing that facing Oklahoma in Norman and hosting Texas could result in a 4-8 finish. Still, with the season lost for quite some time, Mike Elko and his talented but underwhelming roster are focused on the Volunteers , knowing two more wins will secure bowl game eligibility and provide at least some momentum heading into a critical offseason. For the Aggies to have any legitimate shot at pulling off the upset, senior quarterback Marcel Reed and first-year OC Holmon Wiggins will need to be on the same page and continue utilizing the quick passing attack, while

9 Huge Secondhand Stores In East Tennessee Where Bargain Hunters Love To Shop

What happened to the $30.7 million Topgolf-style golf complex planned for Tennessee?

A $30.7 million golf entertainment complex approved more than two years ago by Tennessee officials has yet to break ground on a vacant property north of downtown, despite original plans to open by early 2026 . No building permits have been issued for Knoxville's ShotClub Social, a Topgolf-style venue planned along Interstate 275 off Fifth Avenue, Bryan Berry, the city's deputy director of zoning and development services, told Knox News. The project's developer, New York-based OnCore Golf , has not finalized an agreement for the 11-year property tax incentive the Knoxville City Council approved for the development in 2024. OnCore Golf had a similar facility planned for Buffalo, New York, which has since been relocated, scaled back and delayed. ShotClub Social promised site cleanup and hundreds of jobs ShotClub Social was designed to include golf bays, mini golf, duckpin bowling and an arcade, along with food and drinks. Rebekah Jane Justice, the city's chief of urban design and development, supported the project in 2024. The land cannot be used for housing, she said, so a commercial use is a win-win for the city. The project was expected to create 200-250 jobs, including entry-level positions, in the city's 6th District. Former

'Real neighborhood deli' bringing sandwiches, pizza, paninis to Old City

Custom sandwiches, pizza and paninis are coming to the Old City next month with the opening of a new downtown Knoxville deli. Todd Carpenter and his partner, Chad Weeks, are planning to open the deli Dec. 4 at 112 E. Jackson Ave., across the street from Fiori Bar & Kitchen . Carpenter and Weeks share a long history in real estate and spent years learning from their friends and Fiori co-owners Jesse and Corey Vose, whose success in the restaurant and bar business helped inspire their new venture. "We want to be a part of what's going on (in the Old City)," Carpenter said. What Carpenter describes as their "timeless" sandwich shop began with a simple idea: "Knoxville deserved a real neighborhood deli," according to its website. "Not a franchise, not a fast-food operation," the website says. "Just a place where the food is made fresh, the staff knows your name, and the vibe is always good." The deli will be next to Sidecar , a new cocktail bar from the Voses scheduled to open by the end of the year. Jesse Vose previously described Sidecar as a "dark, intimate and sophisticated cocktail lounge" featuring a 22-foot bar, floral accents

I stood by him, peeking over the counter to see if I could help. I was too young to lend a hand with cooking, but my dad still gave me a job: throwing the apple peels into the trash. I loved it. I felt special. Now, that's my 5-year-old nephew's job, and I wish I was there to help him. It's been a few years since I've been back home for Thanksgiving , but November
